I'm that Curtis Jobling, writer and illustrator. You may know me as designer of "Bob the Builder" (sorry) and creator of "Raa Raa the Noisy Lion" and "Frankenstein's Cat". I'm also the author of the "Wereworld" series of fantasy horror novels and the darkly comic YA thriller "Haunt". Published by Puffin, Penguin US, Simon & Schuster and Egmont around the world.

WEREWORLD Book Tour in pictures...

Defacing books. What a bad man...(Moreton High School, Wolverhampton)

That queue was for Bob The Builder. It dispersed quicker than a fart in a hurricane when they realised it was me at the end...

(Our Lady's Catholic High School, Preston)

Hairy man and Wolfman. And so natural too. We look like conjoined twins, the only way you can tell us apart is the ginger burners. Me and Super League's greatest mascot, Wolfie...

(Waterstone's, Warrington)

Did I ever tell you about the time I won the Challenge Cup?(Waterstone's, Warrington)

You'll often find me crouching down when I read, surrounded by my homies from the 'hood.

Nosey Parker, Bushnell! "Five Rebels" features extracts from five new Puffin novels. I think the idea is the readership vote for their favourite. Alex and Simon Scarrow both have books in the "Rebels" booklet.
